Description

Anequs, a young Indigenous woman, finds herself at odds with the colonizer-run dragon academy, where she must navigate a world that doesn't understand her unique relationship with a dragon. The remote island of Masquapaug has not seen a dragon in many generations, but Anequs's people remember the tales of the days when dragons lived among them. Anequs's bond with the dragon's hatchling earns her a revered place in her community, but the Anglish conquerors have different ideas about how a dragon should be raised. With great reluctance, they allow her to enroll in a proper Anglish dragon school on the mainland, where she must confront challenges both socially and academically. Anequs is determined to learn what she needs to help her dragon, even if it means teaching herself. As Anequs and her dragon come of age, they realize that the world needs changing, and they might just be the ones to do it.
